I absolutely love this show. I was born in the 80's and have only seen it as an adult so this show has no reminiscing value for me. Sure there are a few corny episodes(more common towards the end of the series) but the vast majority of the episodes, I love. Many have very good plots. My favorite has to be the one where they steal the mint and start producing "counterfeit" silver coins of the realm that have higher levels of silver than the "official" silver coins of the realm making the sheriff look bad so that he has to pay to restore the coinage to it's full value. Close behind is the fishing episode where Robin tricks the Lord of the Manor into trading fishing rights on his own property for the release of one of his serfs. I laughed so hard every time Robin would hit him on the head with a piece of brush to simulate being being led to the secret pond as he leads him around in circles blindfolded to a spot 15 feet from where they started. I bought all the seasons as they came out and loved everyone. But after the full series came out and was offered for such a ridiculously low price I decided to buy a backup in case anything happened to one of the disc and it was no longer available. I don't know if I've ever purchased anything in my life that I got more out of for the price. Especially since I gave it to my parents to watch and they loved it as well. This is a steal. The funny thing is when I first got this show I watched one episode and was annoyed by it being too scratchy and didn't like the sound in the opening. But it seemed OK and I didn't feel like getting up so I watched another. After three episodes I was hooked and kept saying I can squeeze in one more episode. If I had felt more ambitious that day I might have gotten up and watched something else. So glad I was lazy that day. After a few episodes the scratchiness either went away or I became immune to it as it I no longer noticed it. Later on at a family gathering I asked everyone if they wanted to watch Robin Hood. They said sure and I put it in and my younger brother was immediately annoyed by the black and white and said he thought I meant "Robin Hood Men in Tights". He made fun of the show at first but after a few episodes played through and I didn't immediately start the next episode he said "you gonna start another one?" I said "I thought you didn't like it?" He said "it's not too bad." Yeah it draws you in. If you hate reality TV and most of the trash that is on TV today then you'll love this show. If you like that stuff then you probably won't. The show is totally clean, relaxing, happy/lighthearted/fun, and peaceful to watch. The show has an excellent cast and I find the reuse of the same non-essential character actors in different episodes as different characters adds to the charm of the show. If you enjoy this show I also highly recommend The Buccaneers, and Sir Lancelot. And possibly Wanted Dead or Alive, with Steve McQueen, it's feel is a little more serious most of the time but still a similar feel. All are excellent!

As a baby boomer, I was fortunate to see the emergence of television in the 1950s, and while some may refer to it as the 'Golden Age' of live drama and comedy, we kids knew better; it was REALLY the 'Golden Age' of syndicated adventure series, geared to us...shows like Adventures of Superman, Roy Rogers With Dale Evans, and ESPECIALLY, The Adventures of Robin Hood: The Complete Series. Produced in England, and starring every kid's second favorite "Outlaw of Sherwood", Richard Greene (and he was a VERY close second to Errol Flynn!), this four-season (1955-1960), half-hour series provided 143 episodes of humor, swordplay, and the kind of adventure we all dreamed of. It spawned a fan club that encompassed two continents and thousands of youthful members, made Mr. Greene a VERY wealthy man, and, surprisingly, holds up quite well, over 50 years later! Truthfully, there are technical problems with this collection; the episode quality ranges from unremastered and scratchy, to poorly remastered and tinted in blue; some episodes are repeated on different discs; and some are out of sequence (the 'Richard of the Lea' episodes featuring the 1938 Errol Flynn film's 'King Richard', Ian Hunter, are very mixed-up and a bit confusing). But the collection is still quite watchable (with improved picture quality in later seasons), and the price is amazingly affordable...and deserves five stars! Shot on a very tight budget, the program had a 'stock company' of supporting actors, who would play different roles each episode; over the course of the series, Maid Marian would be portrayed by two different actresses (Bernadette O'Farrell, then Patricia Driscoll); there would also be very brief substitutions of Little John and Will Scarlett, although the lion's share of episodes featured Archie Duncan and Paul Eddington in the roles. Two wonderful actors became fan favorites; Alexander Gauge, as a corpulent, very witty Friar Tuck, and Alan Wheatley, oozing villainy as the Sheriff of Nottingham. The series also offered a rising generaton of young British stars, early in their careers, including Donald Pleasance (who occasionally appeared as Prince John), Billie Whitelaw, Ian Bannen, Leo McKern, Jane Asher, Nigel Davenport, Anne Reid, Gordon Jackson, Edward Mulhare, Lawrence Naismith, Charles Gray, Desmond Llewellyn, Michael Gough, Nigel Green, Gary Raymond, Edward Judd, and many more. The talent behind the camera was top-notch, as well, with respected directors like Lindsay Anderson, Don Chaffey, and Hammer Films legend, Terence Fisher, and writers, including Ring Lardner, Jr., Howard Dimsdale, and Jan Read. Many episodes of the series carried on the Hollywood (and literary) tradition of Robin defending England for King Richard, while defying the ambitions of Prince John, with a bit more 'bite' than earlier incarnations; producer Hannah Weinstein, an expatriate American in England to avoid the McCarthy 'witchhunts', encouraged blacklisted American writers to join her in England, and pen scripts condemning political, religious, or scientific repression by Prince John and his minions; other episodes were straightforward morality tales, often humorous but occasionally more serious, some of which were, in fact, based on the Robin Hood ballads of Medieval England, giving the series a sense of authenticity many other series have lacked, and a timeless universal appeal for generations of viewers! This series is a joy, one that I have truly enjoyed revisiting over a half-century after their initial broadcast, and can highly recommend for children and adults, today!

As an American kid this TV series was ten years before my time. I did have Howard Pyle's classic novel "The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood" in one of those Whitman books you could buy from a display in a drug store. I thoroughly enjoyed reading that, but I have never seen any filmed versions of Robin Hood until now (not counting Mel Brooks' series "When Things Were Rotten"). I was tempted to watch Kevin Costner's "Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves," but I never did because I suspected the story would be updated for modern prejudices much like Kevin Sorbo's "Hercules," which one reviewer described as "a surfer dude on his way to a Renaissance fair." When I bought the complete first season of the Richard Greene series for five bucks at Wal-Mart, I figured it would be fun, not knowing that I would be both surprised and amazed at the quality of the acting, the writing, and the way it was filmed. I have since bought the complete four-year series. It really takes you back into a credible medieval atmosphere. It may have once been considered a kid's show, but it surely has kept the adults entertained around our house! It also brought back pleasant memories of a time in our culture when writers took romantic heroism seriously, and didn't have to turn everything into tongue-in-cheek "camp." In some circles today it is popular to criticize Robin Hood as the world's first socialist, because he "robbed from the rich to give to the poor." If that were true he would be an evil man. But this TV series sets the record straight by showing that Robin was an avenger of the poor, who only took from the rich what they had previously stolen and returned it to its rightful owners. And speaking of avengers, I was also a fan of the British television series "The Avengers." The women in that show, Catherine Gale, Emma Peel, and Tara King, all had respectable British properness, but underneath all that was this element of delicious mischief. I am now going to have to add Bernadette O'Farrell's Maid Marian to my mental list of "Hottest British Women." I am extremely pleased with my purchase, and my wish for you is to get as much pleasure out of this wonderful series as I have!

Very inexpensive and has 143 episodes (complete series). Picture quality is about as decent as you can expect for a 60 year old TV show; in fact, the quality is pretty good. Many of the episodes are definitely taken from the American (CBS) prints, as they contain the "Brought to you by Wildroot Cream-oil" sponsor text in the show's opening. The DVD packaging is nice; on par with all other recent Mill Creek multi-disc sets--i.e. hard shell case with DVDs in single sleeves secured inside. Each disc has a simple menu that allows you to either "Play All" or choose a specific episode. There are no "bonus" features, but that would be unnecessary (and probably raise the price). Each individual DVD has artwork and a list of episodes. All of the episodes are presented in the same order they aired in the US (not the same order as the UK); the only "error" is on Disc 9 (1st disc of Season 4) where a few episodes are out of order. None of this really matters as each episode is stand-alone (plot-wise). You can refer to IMDB's episode list to see the order. Although I am not 100% certain, it appears that this series might have fallen into the Public Domain. I've noticed that over 60 episodes are available on Archive.org, and the complete series is available on YouTube. Regardless, Mill Creek has done an excellent job in making the complete series available at such a reasonable price and with very nice packaging. If you've seen the show and enjoy it, I highly recommend purchasing this set. If you are unfamiliar with the series, but are interested, I recommend checking out an episode online as a sample. But by all means, purchase this box-set as it is great quality, inexpensive, and convenient.

There have been several versions of THE ADVENTURES OF ROBIN HOOD. You can find the story in at least a half dozen live action films...a Disney animated Classic...as well as a version that is UNRATED! But to be perfectly honest, NOTHING surpasses the 1955-1959 Television Show starring Richard Greene. Millcreek Entertainment originally released the first 3 seasons in separate volumns. I purchased Volumn 1 which contained the Origin of Robin Hood, his encounters with Little John, Maid Marian, Friar Tuck, and The Sheriff of Nottingham. But after 39 episodes and a few too many glasses of mulled wine, I wanted more! So in 2009, I discovered that Millcreek Entertainment had ALL 143 Episodes available on extended DVD discs. While Richard Greene portrayed Robin throughout the entire series, there were a few cast changes---including Lady Marian (Bernadette O'Farrell to Patricia Driscoll) as well as an alternate Little John (for Archie Duncan) in about 6 shows. Alan Wheatley...who portrayed the Sheriff of Nottingham...seems to be missing during the final 2 seasons. But just about every other actor is consistant...including Ian Hunter who portrays the part of King Richard, The Lionhearted in several episodes. [Don't confuse this portrayal with 1939's "Tower of London" where Ian played the not-so-nice King Richard]. Now the technical stuff. Before the series went into syndication, there were designated sponsors that got a "brought to you by.." during the opening and closing credits. How many men reading this remember using Wildroot Cream Oil on their hair? Or Johnson & Johnson's Band-Aid Plastic Strips? Or Johnson & Johnson's First Aid Cream? There's a plug for one or more of these products in some of the episodes. It's too bad Millcreek couldn't have left one commercial in the middle of these sponsored episodes...simply because it's always fun to watch "the stars of tomorrow" pitching a commercial product! Potential buyers reading this should understand that most of the material came from film stock. So the quality of some of the episodes will vary. The program was originally shot in black and white at Shepperton Studios in England...and then flown to the USA via Pan American Airlines! I remember CBS airing the show at 7:30pm on Monday evenings. [This was back in the 1950s when the networks were responsible for 4 hours of programming per night--following the 6:30pm half-hour newscasts]. So you're going to notice an occasional splice or dark spot. But if you can cope with those minor defects...FOLLOW ROBIN'S ARROW TO A WONDERFUL TV SERIES! Feel free to enjoy the shows with a large cut of wild boar and a sturdy mug of mulled wine-----assuming you have access to both???

This original series is the best depiction of the the Robin Hood fable (and in my opinion unsurpassed). English actor Richard Greene is the quintessential Robin Hood and the other English actors for Little John, Friar Tuck, Maid Marian and other characters are classic. The acting is excellent (except the sword fighting, which is easy to forgive given the time period it was filmed - graphic depictions of violence wasn't allowed). The stories are well written incorporating many old medieval English words throughout the stories (listen carefully!). If you are a Robin Hood fan, you will thoroughly enjoy this collection of the entire 143 episodes (4 seasons - who does 35 episodes per year anymore?!). The image quality of this collection is amazingly sharp considering the original film was created in the late 50's. The sound track is not as good as the image quality but still good. The only thing more you could ask for in this collection would be closed captions for the hard of hearing, but also for people with normal hearing to be able to understand some of the old English words and mumbled lines. In spite of this shortcoming, this collection is a great value. Get it while you can.

Many reviews have praised this classic timeless series. I certainly have no regrets: at a fair price, 138 episodes provide invaluable entertainment. Riddled with witty remarks and conversation, it can be difficult for some to follow, but most would find it quite smart. A 1950s series, it is in black and white but still quite clear; where violence and action are emphatic in later productions of this legendary hero, those are replaced with far better results here with wit, plot and moral. Many episodes are quite amusing from the point of their contemporary relevance: in some, Robin hood and his band are saving the downcast from a totalitarian regime, quite daring at a time of such political crisis; other episodes present humourous inventions of hundreds of years later: for example, a cannon powered by "iron substances" propelled by "devil crackers". Only the ever apparent shuffling of actors can be a reason of complaint. While ten actors are so are found in almost every episode (especially in the first two seasons) playing different roles in different make-up, later in the series illustrious characters like Lady Marion and the Sheriff of Nottingham are suddenly replaced. Admittedly the actors that play Robin's men in one episode, a soldier in another etc., can be a source of amusement; however a word of disappointment might be heard when such lovable characters suddenly look, sound and act differently. On the whole I highly recommend this for family fun.

I really enjoy this series. Richard Greene is the only actor who comes very close to Eroyl Flynn as Robin Hood. Until reading one persons review, I did'nt know that there was a hiatus, I'm quessing that's why a different actress played Maid Marion. Not that I have any objections, I don't Patricia Driscolle is quite good in the role. The other actress for whatever reason was unavaiable. It very likely had to do with that hiatus, she must have been doing something else, though the others like Alexander Gauge came back. I would have liked for the series to have closure. Meaning that King Richard comes back, Robin's estates and wealth are restored, all of the rest of the merry men free, no longer outlaws. And of course Robin Hood and Maid Marion marry and live happlily ever after! Oh well, we all know that is what happens after the show went off the air. Of all the actors who played more than one role Paul Eddington played more different roles than the others. And in the final season, season four on this 11 disc set, had a regular role as Will Scarlet. I recommend this TV show to everyone, add this to your DVD collection, you won't be sorry. This is a contuation of the above review, written earlier. I sometimes read other reviews, to see what others think, and I find it quite interesting. Like I'm not the only one who thinks that Richard Greene is the only one of all the other actors to play Robin Hood, who comes a very close second to Erroll Flynn in the role. This DVD can even be viewed by today's kids, who in my view should'nt think it as dated, unlike the others, because this takes place during the middle ages. Even though its produced for kids, it did'nt surgarcoat how things were during that time. It should make us feel lucky that we live in the 21st century. So much injustice, and the Lords of the Manor abusing right and left their power over the people who work the Lords land. In one epsoide Friar Tuck, One Lord wants land that the other has, and agreed to marry him to the daughter of a man who worked on his land. But while not a serf, she also is not his social equal, so marry her? Oh well it's a show produced for kids so that had to be that way, and not the other one. Once more I recommend this TV show. Sometimes like the shows are not in their proper air time, like the ones that Ian Hunter starring as Sir Richard of the Lea, two examples of not being constistn like this is in the Knight who comes to Dinner. He had to get a loan from the abbott(a disgrace to his office) in order to get his son away because by accident he killed a son whose father is a crony of Prince John and they were going to have him arrested for murder. So Sir RIchard used the loan to have him join in the fight in the Holy Land. But in another one The Bethothal, his son loves music and is not a jouster. But from the way he and his wife talked he is the only son. Sir Richard needed to marry his son off so that he can pay his ransom when he lost a match. Will always recommend this to others. To one reviewer who said that in this Ian Hunter played King Richard, he did in the 1938 movie version of The Adventures of Robin Hood, but in this he played Sir Richard of the Lea.
